I have had teaching experiences in Pune from 2008 to 2010. I have taught at Richie's music classes on Sus Road.
In the US, I gave in-home private lessons through a company called Rockstar Guitar Lessons. I also gave in-studio private lessons at Delian Music Academy, Inglewood, Los Angeles. I also taught guitar at the after school guitar program at Centinella Elementary School and Crozier Middle School, Los Angeles.
In India, I played with the Pune based band Vertigo. In the United States, I played with the bands We The Ones and Bella Sol.
Currently I am the lead guitarist of the premier Indian Metal Band Sceptre.
I love teaching and nothing gives me more satisfaction than watching my students grow as musicians. I have a very positive oriented teaching approach and I love making the lessons as much fun as possible. If you are looking for a guitar teacher, look no further because I am one of the best teachers there are.
